Omg! What the fuck was she thinking? And to think she did this around the time it was popular. The nerve of her to even attempt that. I'm glad she thought highly of herself tho! What's more laughable is her version of Private Joy and the studio version of 1999 both also on youtube.

Check 'em out here. You will be laughin' on the floor for days.

I shouldn't be so critical. It was good try. She did the best possible job she could have done, and it was good for her!

Why Yall made me watch that!?! duh

Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

I didn't know where else to place her. I just found it interesting that she was actually redoing some of P's material. I'm curious to how he feels about it. I'm even more curious to know what he thinks of Latoya.

She shouldn't quit her day job (whatever THAT might be). Undoubtedly one of the WORST female singing voices ever.

Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up.

C'mon guys, lighten up. "1999" has always been a karaoke-type song and it certainly doesn't require great vocal chops to perform.
